Hi, ********(Please don’t send a booking request before you first message me. I work as a substitute teacher, so I’m not available for short-notice bookings at this time.) ******* My name is Woodlyn, and I am currently a substitute teacher. I have been working with families and children for over a decade. I have always possessed a natural aptitude for caregiving and a profound passion for working with children. As a wife and mother, I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in biology from Montclair State University. I am characterized by my trustworthiness, responsibility, passion, and patience. Additionally, I am active and possess a high level of energy that children find endearing. I would be honored to provide childcare and nurturing for families. I am capable of taking children to various destinations, including parks, museums, ice skating arenas, and any sports practices (such as those offered by the YMCA, JCC, indoor, and outdoor facilities). I am highly engaging with children of all ages, even when managing multiple children simultaneously.
